Mill Valley routs Tongie

Ty Bruce ran for 101 yards and a touchdown and threw for 88 yards as Mill Valley High stayed undefeated with a football victory Friday against Tonganoxie.

The Class 5A Jaguars (4-0, 3-0 Kaw Valley League) scored on offense, defense and special teams in the win against the 4A Chieftains (3-1, 2-1).

Following a scoreless first quarter, the MVHS defense scored when T.J. Phillips returned an interception 57 yards for a touchdown. THS went three-and-out on the ensuing possession, and the Jaguars made it 14-0 on a one-yard scoring run by Tyler Garrison with 6:49 left until halftime.

Neither team scored again before the break.

Bruce scored from eight yards out on Mill Valley’s first drive of the second half, then Christian Jegen capped off Jaguar scoring with a 48-yard punt-return touchdown early in the fourth quarter.

The Chieftains avoided a shutout when quarterback Tyler Ford found Carl Hecht for a three-yard score in the final minutes.

Mill Valley will host Bonner Springs next week, while Tonganoxie will travel to Bishop Ward.
